Get Your Man

Screening on Film
Directed by Dorothy Arzner.
With Clara Bow, Charles "Buddy" Rogers, Harvey Clark.
US, 1927, black & white, silent, 48 min.

One of Dorothy Arzner’s earliest films as a director, this romantic comedy was made for Paramount as a vehicle for its star, Clara Bow. Cast as an American in Paris, Bow finds herself stranded overnight in a wax museum together with a dashing French nobleman (Rogers). A love is born, but inevitable complications follow that can be overcome only through the happy marriage of American ingenuity (including Clara staging an automobile accident) and aristocratic values. As the title suggests, love manages to win out in the end.
